Looking for beta-testers who can make Let's Play videos of a browser-based Mega Man RPG fangame.

This may be a strange request, but my team and I have been working on a browser-based Mega Man RPG prototype for the last few years and we were hoping to get some beta-testing and feedback in the form of Let's Play videos.

All kinds of feedback are welcome and useful, but comments and written word can only provide so much insight into the player's experience. If we can see people's reactions in real time - their excitement, frustration, confusion - and connect what's happening on-screen at the time we should be able to tweak and revisit mechanics until we can provide a much better experience.

There are no rules or special criteria, you don't have to have 100 followers or anything like that, and I obviously cannot pay you as this entire project is made up of volunteers, but I and everyone else would be very, very happy if anyone is interested. I'll obviously subscribe to your channel myself, add your name to the game credits, and post your video to our Facebook page for exposure but let me know if there are other ways you'd like to be thanked/credited.

If you have any questions please let me know and if you're at all interested in learning more about the game please visit either of the links below:

EDIT : Thank you all so much for your responses and interest - it really means a lot. _^ Videos can be posted directly to YouTube under your channel and linked here in the comments or through PM, whatever works for you. I will eventually create a videos page on the main website and link all related videos there, but for now posting on reddit seems easiest. Also, here's my own (dead) YouTube channel if that helps with anything. As far as language, I only understand English but if you want to make it in another language go right ahead - even if I don't understand what you're saying I can still learn a lot from how you play. :P

The music definitely gets a bit repetitive, especially the first eight Dr. Light stages. The audio part element of the game is definitely one of its weak points, and I'll admit it's been on the bottom of my priority list.

The volume slider is something I decided against for the sake of screen space (when the game was still iPad only), but things have changed and I understand how it would be useful. I'll try to add it back in an unobtrusive way for a future update.

Thank you again for playing, and I'm glad you like the combat system. It really opens up the more you play, and while it does get a bit repetitive at times there's a lot of content and neat mechanics to play around with.

You can post there here and/or to the Facebook page - it's really you call. As long as there's a way for me to watch the videos, I'm okay with whatever distribution method you're most comfortable with. Thank you so much for your interest and I look forward to your feedback. _^

Bomb Man and his weapon are definitely the "easy" option (like Bulbasaur in R/B/Y) but I think the latter missions force you to use a little more strategy than Hyper Bomb on repeat. :P Also, the Intro Field was purposefully made to be an easy EXP area with the Mets and the Hyper Bomb in case you ever get stuck and need to grind a bit before proceeding. Thank you for playing! _^

It can be a bit challenging for sure, and given that you're at the mercy of the random number generator (like most RPGs of this nature) it's totally possible to have horrible luck. :P

That being said, if you're playing the main game (and not the demo) you can unlock Roll pretty easily after failing your first mission - she should help at least a little bit. In addition to that, replaying the Intro Stage is an easy way to earn Experience and Level Up until you learn more abilities. Thanks for playing!

I speak only English so I will not be able to understand other languages, but I will watch them all the same and get what I can out of them regardless of language. Any feedback is appreciated. :) And as far as submission, you can post 'em here or on the Facebook page or PM me - totally your choice. Thank you for your interest and thank you if you do make any! :D

Thank you for your interest! I implore you to check out the website then and sign up for an account. Whether you wanna create a video Let's Play, a screenshot version, a written version, or just plain feedback it's all welcome and appreciated. :)

Thank you for your comment, and no problem about the "Other" option. As a member of the LGBT community it would be blasphemous not to include it. :P

And any type of feedback you can provide would be helpful - video, screenshot, text or whatever doesn't matter. I appreciate whatever is possible on your end and will review and study it with pleasure. _^

Just subscribed to your channel and look forward to seeing what you put up! _^ Thank you so much for your interest - I appreciate the help a great deal and will credit you appropriately on the game's page once complete. Yay!

Thank you so much for playing and for making the video! I really enjoyed watching you play through and got a lot of great ideas in the process...

BUT OH MY GOD the victory/defeat jingle is super annoying! I knew it repeated, but I test with the sound off most of the time and didn't realize how grating it is to the ears or how much it kills the post-battle experience. Honestly the sound was the last thing I implemented and while the actual remixes are pretty great my implementation is incredibly basic and amateur. :S

Luckily it was an easy fix. I just finished tweaking the code so that the jingle only plays once and then transitions to a more neutral track that's easier to listen to for extended periods. You should see (hear?) the update the next time you play, and hopefully it makes the overall experience a little less tiresome. :P

Hey I would be really interested in doing a lets play on this if thats cool like i've never played megaman but it looks pretty cool and i hope that maybe because i haven't played megaman i might be able to give input from someone who hasn't played it before so like a totally fresh player

I would love a totally fresh playing to give the game a go and make one or some videos of it - anything you can provide will be incredibly helpful and I look forward to reviewing and studying your playthrough. :) Thank you so much!

Hey there. I enjoy RPG games and have not really had one (asides from Dark souls if you count that) on my channel. I also really enjoyed the NES Mega Man games and would love to be able to help beta Test this. I take it this is the one you wanted recorded? - http://megamanpoweredup.net/rpg2k11/prototype/

As I said on the Facebook page, this video is great and I appreciate you doing it soooo much! Thank you a hundred times over - the professional quality and verbal feedback for what's happening on-screen are incredibly helpful and I eagerly look forward to more of your work. _^

There may be a few, but I'm certainly not the first person to make a Mega Man fangame and zero of them have been shut down. Companies like Square Enix and Nintendo would shut this down before it even started, but Capcom has been a pretty great company as far as appreciating fan-tributes though. They even promote fangames on their blog sometimes!

In the end if Capcom ever sent me a cease and desist I'd obviously have to take it down, but I am making no money from this and Capcom isn't exactly making their own Mega Man games right now so I don't think there's any harm in continuing the project. :)

For the record though, while a lot of the base "art" in the game comes directly from Capcom's games it's not a simply copy/paste job. Hours upon months upon years of work have gone into creating all the different poses for the robots, creating the panoramic stage backgrounds for all the different missions, the design and functionality of the website's visual elements and styling, and so much more. There are even some completely original robots and minor enemies created by myself to make things more interesting. _^

A subreddit dedicated to creating Let's Plays, either liked by redditors or made by redditors!
Let's Play: One or more people that record themselves playing video games through screenshots or captured video (Mostly the latter).
If you go into this just to fit yourself in with a certain demographic, you'll be throwing yourself in with mediocrity.
